Proceeds Given to Chinese The proceeds from the performance will be given to the Chinese Famine Relief Fund. In previous years the junior class has presented the profits of its dramatic presentation to the University.
“Sidney Carton’’ is a play in three acts and seven scenes. It is a product of the versatility of Paddock and is said to portray character and present dramatic situations with a profes sional air. Critics state that the work is not amateurish.
With one exception the cast of char acters will remain the same as pre viously announced. Paul Greeley however, will not enact Dr. Manette which is said to be the best character part in the play. Preeley at present has the measles. His part in the play will probably be taken by Merle Me Ginnis, Who was formerly cast Charles Darnay until Paddock retired from the lead.
Exquisite Performance Promised The title role will be portrayed by Grant Kuhns, baseball hero. His double, Charles Darnay, will be acted by Carlisle Scott. The names of those in the entire cast will be printed in the next edition of The Trojan.
A splendid presentation is promised for the play. Manual Arts offers large stage and opportunities for excellent lighting effects, it is said. Costumes Used by Movie Star “The costumes,” says Baker, “are the best that can be obtained. Thi'y are costing us $175 in rental for ore night, and are worth $10,000 in cold ca*h. Some of the same costumes "ere used in Clara Kimbal Young’s latest picture, “Straight from Paris.” •t Is rumored that the lace on Sidney Carton’s costume would stretch from New York to Los Angeles if it were unwound. The gold lace on the same affair would make any one of the damsels in King Solomon’s harem en-cious. The rental for the costume is ♦25 for each performance.

JOURNALISTS GET TRAINING
Record Offers Professional Training to News Writers at
U. S. C.
Writing everything from Ihe latest scandal to the most palpitating, throbbing human interest stories, the Trojan reporters are working daily on the Los Angeles Record. These embryo newspaper people are hot on the trail of elusive news and fair divorcees.
Through the courtesy of'the Record management, the Department of Journalism of U. S. C. is receiving practical experience in city work. These students work on the downtown paper fter school hours and on Saturday.
News written by these students has not only appeared in the Record but has been flashed over the United 3ress wires to different Scripps bathers.
Innocent lads and lassies whose hlef misdemeanors were press club dinners In Chinatown, spent whole days in the divorce courts, chronicling the most interesting testimony.
Old timers on the Record towed the budding cubs about the city, introducing them to reporters from the other dailies, and explaining the intricacies of the "beat."
These students will continue to work downtown until the end of the term.

SOPH
POLITICS SIZZLE TODAY
Large sized political doings will be in order at the sophomore cut-tbroat class meeting today. Much mystery surrounds this political orgy that comes off today at 12:30, in the annex.
Plans will be discussed for freshman-sophomore day, on Friday, the 27th. After the two classes struggle through with their debates and games, an open-air feed will be hell, picnic style, in Exposition Park.
But the big doings will be exemplified by the nominations.
Rumor has it that Roy Wolfe is in the running for class president, and that Berg Lion is out gunning for the keeper of the sacred parse of the class of '23.
El Rodeo Aspirants
Candidates for the other offices are still unannounced, with the exception of the job of 1923 El Rodeo editor.

It has been rumored about the campus that the El Rodeo editorship candidates were ineligible because of not having enough units to be full-fledged juniors next year, but it was announced yesterday that all were eligible to run for the office.
Trojans Prove To Be Hitless Basebaliers
McGinnis
Gets Presidency; Farman Made Trojan
Editor
Southern California Boys Prove to Be Adept at Fanning the Pill
BILL HUNTER GUIDES TEAM
Another victory for the pen of the faculty is announced in the publication of a book by John Eugene Harley, professor in the Political Science Department, on “The League of Nations, and the New International Law.” The fact that the work has secured recognition from both English and American sources emphasizes its importance.
That the Oxford University Press publishes the volume is in itself an honor. “A feather in the cap‘of the University,” Dr. Dixon of the Oriental Department, considers it, stating that the Oxford Press accepts only work of high merit.
The foreword by TheoOore Marburg, well known writer and student, is considered by local professors as significant of the success of the work. Marburg states that the work is of value for the new problems, resulting from the war, which it takes up. Marburg also emphasizes the interest and importance which Prof. Harley attributes o these problems.
John Eugene Harley, A.M.. was a U. S. C. student of the class of ’17. Winning an Oxford fellowship he revived his master’s degree at that institution, returning here to join the faculty. At present he is acting head of the Department of Political Science.

C. to show where they stand in regard to the athletes.
TENNIS CLUB MEETS
California Tech and Southern Branch Go Down to Defeat
Guided by Bill Hunter, the Trojan baseball team proved themselves the hitless wonders when they defeated California Tech by the score of 8 to 0, a week ago, on the Exposition Park diamond, and cleaned up on the Southern Hranch yesterday, 4 to 2. They made just two hits in the first game, both of which came in the second inning, and aided greatly in making the five runs which were scored in that frame. Herlihy was responsible for a long, sizzling single, along the right field foul line, while Kincaid doubled to right center. Atfer that, the Cardinal and Gold squad depended on good base running and erratic pitching and fielding to bring home the bacon. They didn’t have to do much slugging, for Mintie ,the Cal. Tech. twirler. gave eight walks and his team-mates'booted the ball about that many times.
As for the Pasadena team, not a great deal can be said about them one way or another. They looked speedy enough in practice, but it was an off day for them once hostilities commenced. They got one hit in the lirst inning, one in the second and one in the sixth—aside from these three lonely bingles, Hinrichs held them in the pocket of his glove, and his teammates backed him up with occasional double plays .and pretty field exhibitions in both infield and the outer garden. There were occasional errors, hut no vital ones, and to Hinrichs belongs the credit for pitching the first shut-out of the university's season.
Second Frame Does Work
The hereinbefore mentioned second inning put the contest on ice. Tarr started things by getting a base on balls, took second on n wild pitch, nnd went to third when Kemp muffed Er-hart’s grounder. “Whitey” stole second on the next one pitched, and a moment later Turner hit to Minite, who got tangled up with himself, permitting Tarr to score, Eiiiart to take third and Turner to arrive safely at first. He stole second on the next throw, and Schmitz walked, filling the bases. Erhart scored when Hinrichs was being thrown out, Larson to SchneTder, Turner and Schmitz each moving up one. Farrar fouled out, but Herlihy biffed out the first hit of the day along the flrst base line, and Turner and Schmitz scored. Herlihy going to second on the throw home. Kincaid doubled, scoring Herlihy for the fifth an dlast run of the inning
One run came in the fourth, fifth and sixth frames, as the result of good baserunning, walks and considerable loose fielding, and In the last two times at bat tbe Trojans took things nurre easily. The visitors did not seriously
Students of U. S. C. have spoken!
Merle McGinnis was elected president of the Associated Student Body of the University over Kennedy Ellsworth, his opponent, by a comfortable margin In Ihe annual student body elections held last Tuesday, May 17. The largest number of votes ever cast at U. S. C. was indicative of the general intense feeling and deep interest taken in the election this year. Nineteen hundred votes were cast Tuesday in comparison to only 1500 polled one year ago. All the campus and professional colleges took an active part and also cast a heavy vote.
Merle Has Good Margin
The vote cast for McGinnis at Liberal Arts alone surpassed his opponent’s entire number.
Ellsworth lost on the campus by nearly a three to one margin but carried every professional college except Music and Theology. However, his following in these off-campus schools was of too small a number to offset McGinnis' big Liberal Arts lead.
A general feeling of approval was expressed Wednesday morning over the choice for next year's president, and in many Instances loynl Ellsworth backers before the election rallied ln true Trojan spirit and said they were out to support the best interests of 0. S (’.
Ellsworth took his defeat gracefully while McGinnis said he wus aware of the new responsibilities that would be his and that he would at all times stand for the best tor U. S. C.
Reeta Comes to the Front
Reeta Walker was elected vice-president by even a wider margin than was McGinnis. Her nearest rival, Gladys Crail, polled less than half her number of votes. At Liberal Arts Reeta carried more votes than both her opponents added together. Unlike McGinnis, Miss Walker carried every large professional college. Blanche Gauthier took third place in this event.
Differing from any other political race of the duy Cora Baker nosed out Cussita Smith by the thickness of a thin skirt. Only 51 votes separated the two candidates for secretary of the A. S. II. Their support at all the colleges was very evenly divided.
Farman New Editor
Lew Wiles for next year’s Trojan editor in the same proportion that McGinnis won. He lost at Liberal Arts by 57 votes but polled a strong vote at the professional colleges. The Far-mans seem to be quite a Journalistic family because, while Carl will edit the daily publication at Liberal Arts, his brother, Phil, will be editing the Stare Decises, the annual magazine of the Law School. Both were elected to these positions last Tuesday.
Eddie Leahy, track and football star, was olected over Lindley Bothwell, present yell leader and baseball manager, for the position of athletic manager. Those not in athletics do not know just how important this office Ib, but at any rate, lt was felt in athletic circles that Eddie is highly competent for the Job.
Executive Race Close
As was expected before the election, the race for executive committee members was exceedingly close. Edwin Fisher, alumni candidate, took the blue ribbon without getting a nervous breakdown over the situation. As no competition showed up he won with flying colors. Of tho other ten candidates Albert Butterfield topped the list with G7ti votes to his credit. Fred Axe came in second with 607 votes, and Floyd Tarr third with 648. Ray Wilkinson with 527 votes was fourth, while Helen Tobie was the only girl to get on the committee. Her votes amounted to 445. The other five not so fortunate were in order of their appearance on the final ballot were: Evelyn Griffin 420, Florence Gilbert 412, Marquita Wardman 400, and Muriel Arkley 348.
Everything Goes Smoothly
Gwynn Wilson, who was in charge of the election, reports a very successful day In all respects. Only a few discrepancies found their way to the polling place, due to a few eager and over-zealous politicians. Likewise there was only a very small number of "scratched" ballots. Approximately sixty per cent of tbe entire student body registered a vote, which is considered as a very high percentage.
Tho new officers will take over the duties of their respective offices next semester. Until that time they will enjoy a period of "congratulations"
Carl H. Farman was elected over und good will wishing.
